I have to admit, at this very moment, I was moved by this film. I have some experience with the depression and confusion of the film.
What kind of wall is pink flody's wall? Maybe I don't fully understand, maybe I think it's a wall of bondage. In pursuit of freedom, generations of young people try to break free and smash this wall. The crusade against the encroachment of the education system, the attack on the control of the people by the authoritative system, etc., these are the walls of society; and every scream, mother, is probably the wall in the heart. Our cowardice, our fears, we need a wall to rely on, we need a wall to distinguish between the outside world and ourselves, and a wall to protect us. However, we are also afraid that this wall will become a bondage, make us more cowardly, and prevent us from moving forward.
Where do many devouring devils in the film come from? From us who are timid, from us who are immutable.
When the huge darkness enveloped me, and when the Devouring Devil in the film roared, my eyes became slightly moist, as if I was in it, unable to look forward or to step on the ground. No matter how lively or warm your life is, when it comes to your personal future and life, you are a lonely frontrunner. No one can make decisions for you, no one takes the risk for your adventures. The future is there, the invisible place, those who have no courage to walk through the darkness, are destined to cry alone in place.
And right now, I was in such darkness. I have repeatedly told myself that the college entrance examination does not determine my life, my value is not measured by scores, and I should not be afraid. But I still have no courage and still feel lonely and lost.
Since childhood, I was taught to study hard, get into a good university, find a good job, and live comfortably. There is no need to endure hardships. The hardest days are when you are studying when you are young. And now, without knowing the score, I keep guessing about the possible outcomes. Embarrassing scores will smash the good hopes in adults' hearts, will embarrassing scores smash my life? Does a satisfactory score really guarantee my future? Will the comfortable life instilled in my childhood really satisfy me? Is this the life I want to pursue?
Walls were erected one after another, blocking my heart, making me panic. I am trying to smash it! I don't bond Don't be the same Don't be comfortably numb to life! I'm still young! I still have the strength to smash it, run over it, and run forward. I don't want to be a zombie basking in the sun, I want to be a flesh-and-blood human being who chases the wind and rain!
Even though he knew this, he was still afraid. Maybe I still lack courage.
Where does courage come from?
